Carlos Marcello was an Italian-American crime boss operating in New Orleans region of Louisiana. He was of Sicilian origin and came to the United States of America with his parents when he was just one year old. Though he started his career with petty crimes he quickly climbed up the ladder as he married a relative of an underboss in the New Orleans Crime Family.

Later he himself became the boss of the establishment and had his sway over Louisiana for thirty long years until he retired. In fact, members of other mafia families could not enter the state without his permission. Variously known as Godfather and The Little Man , Marcello was arrested several times. However, each time he used his money or influence to come out.

Marcello developed hostility towards President John F. Kennedy when the later began his campaign against organized crime. When President Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, it was believed that Marcello was the man behind it. Independent sources had also claimed that the assassination was carried out at his instruction. Yet, there was no official proof of such involvements and so Marcello could not be touched.
